“Umm, no, the Scripture I was referencing was,”


I specifically quoted you writing “many are called, few enter,” which was your variation of “many are called, few are chosen,” which I quoted and responded to. I made no reference to anything else you were saying.

” What they teach is works as evidence of ones faith just as James defines it, no more , no less. “


James defines it:

Jas 2:8-10 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: (9) But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. (10) For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

No mention of circumcision, dietary laws, or anything of that nature.

“You asked where dietary laws? Where is circumcision? Where are feast days?”


Your constant insistence over these vain laws which we are dead to have already been refuted, especially by the quotes from Romans 14 and 1 Cor 10 which bring up the issue of foods and sacred days plainly.

“His Constitution, Bill of Rights and amendments that we all will be judged by”


We put on Christ, and therefore pass from judgment to life.

I'd be careful what one calls vain as our every word is being recorded in His Book of Works that we are going to be judged by.

FYI, when one puts on something, they take on the look of that something they put on. Think about it! If one says they have “put on Messiah”, then one ought to be able to actually see Messiah in that which the person who claims to wear Him says and does.

“You will now them by their fruits.” The Word of God does not produce lawlessness, it produces children whose hearts are dedicated to serving the Father's desire as Yeshua serves the Father's desire. To walk humbly before ones God is to submit to the will of ones God, doing His desire.

Mt 7:21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied (spoken your word) in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’”
